Surf Spots in California

The Golden State is filled with surfing destinations fit for all experience levels. From Southern California to way up North, there is no shortage of epic spots to shred some waves.

Trestles, San Clemente. This SoCal spot is a vast stretch of beach connected to San Mateo Creek. With a variety of wave features, this location caters to a broad range of surfers.

Mavericks, Half Moon Bay. In the chilly Northern California, seasoned surfers come to test their abilities by riding these massive waves.

Malibu, California. This  SoCal spot is constantly filled with surfers, making you wonder whether anyone has a job around here. Take out your longboard and enjoy Malibu’s slower and smaller break.

Blacks Beach, San Diego. Head way down south to enjoy San Diego’s powerful waves, but beginners: beware. Afterwards, you can relax on the nude beach and bare all as the locals do.
